| Wohlstand | Hi there! | 09:37 |

| jelmer | Hi Wohlstand | 19:17 |
| Wohlstand | Hi, I saw that Baazar doesn't has updates since 2017, is really project abandoned? | 19:17 |
| Wohlstand | I didn't used it before, I had to review some, but suddenly I found it's not actually updated after 2017 | 19:18 |
| Wohlstand | (the last release in 2016) | 19:18 |
| LeoNerd | Breezy is the new way forward | 19:18 |
| Wohlstand | I left the question here https://answers.launchpad.net/bzr/+question/696277 but it still not replied | 19:18 |
| Wohlstand | LeoNerd: I saw some that it's a fork of Baazar | 19:19 |
| LeoNerd | Somewhat | 19:19 |
| Wohlstand | Whoops... I accidentally closed my Thunderbird, back here | 19:20 |
| Wohlstand | Anyway, I looked for some confirmation as I want to note some at the Russian Wikipedia article about the original Baazar the fact it got abandoned or something like | 19:21 |
| Wohlstand | Okay, I had to checked twice, really, in 2017 the developers of Bazaar desired to majorly refactor the project and they had to make it in a form of a fork rather the next version of the same | 19:35 |
| jelmer | Wohlstand: do you mean Breezy? | 19:39 |
| Wohlstand | Yeah, the same creator of Bazaar made it's fork as Breezy with a goal to majorly rework it without hurting the old base and with other goals | 19:40 |
| jelmer | Wohlstand: and without the original corporate sponsor, which ran Bazaar | 19:41 |
| Wohlstand | jelmer: You mean Canonical? | 19:41 |
| jelmer | Yeah | 19:41 |
| Wohlstand | So, yeah, developer desired to become an independent developer rather be under the sponsorship of Cannonical | 19:41 |
| Wohlstand | Correct? | 19:41 |
| Wohlstand | Something like on how the MariaDB was born, or NextCloud (the original creator of OwnCloud has gone off the company and founded the NextCloud instead) | 19:43 |
| Wohlstand | btw wait, Jelmer, you are co-developer, my mistake, I had should write "you" rather "developer" in the messages above, sorry, simply didn't guessed you until I re-checked the announce letter | 19:51 |
| jelmer | Wohlstand: it wasn't the sponsorship, it was mostly that there wasn't anybody in Canonical engaged with the Bazaar project, there was no active community and a cumbersome CLA - it was much easier to just fork and make the changes we wanted since we didn't lose much by forking | 20:18 |
| Wohlstand | Yeah, I see, I may guess that got happen since all Canonical projects got migrated into git, right? | 20:20 |
| jelmer | yeah, almost all I think | 20:20 |
| jelmer | well, one of the things about breezy is that it ships git support so that might not necessarily be a blocker :) | 20:21 |
| Wohlstand | Recently I saw the fact Bitbucket got removed the Mercurial thing away, I had to use it before to host Mercurial repos (some copies from my job where it was used, and SDL' contribution sandboxes) | 20:21 |
| Wohlstand | I see | 20:21 |
| Wohlstand | btw, my friend had blamed git for unfriendly command line and other things, however, once I asked him which CSV is most stable, he got suddenly agree that git is | 20:22 |
| Wohlstand | Also, SDL team had to suddenly migrated their projects into GitHub from their own-hosted Mercurial and Bitbucket server | 20:23 |
| Wohlstand | nope, bugzilla *** | 20:24 |
| Wohlstand | not bitbucket | 20:24 |
